1. Students will be able to perform a scientific experiment.2. Students will collect and record data in graphic form.3. Students will develop skills in observation.4. Students will learn how to design their own bubble makers.5. Students will be able to determine the diameters of the bubbles using a metric ruler.

Set up four test stations using the dishwashing solutions. Students will design their own bubble makers using instructions and material given to them. Students will pour dishwashing liquid onto the surface of the table using their hands to wet about (45cm) in diameter. They will dip a straw into the solution in the container. With the straw just touching the soapy surface, they will blow gently to form a bubble dome and continue blowing until it pops. With a meter stick they will measure the inside diameter of the ring of soap suds left by the bubble dome. Students will work in groups to measure the bubbles from all four solutions. Each group should do four trials per solution. They will band the bubbles from biggest to smallest bubbles made.
